After an unexpected delay, The Kentucky State Register for 1852, 
is now presented to the Public. The very fact, shown by the Prospectus, 
that the matter composing the work was placed in the hands of the Publishers 
some time ago, would seem to stamp inaccuracy upon it. But fully aware 
of the all-importance of accuracy and of the absence of all error in a book 
of this kind, it has been the endeavors of the Editor, by correspondence, to 
keep himself advised of the changes continually occurring in business, and 
thus be enabled to compile a work correct at the day of its issue. Where, 
however, returns have been received or errors in any manner discovered too 
late for correction of the proof-sheets, they have been noted in an Appendix. 
In the preparation of a book of this kind, errors will creep in as unaccount¬ 
ably to the Editor as they are palpable upon a review of the work. It is 
hoped, however, the Appendix, short as it is, has answered its purpose, and 
that the Register will be found accurate in the names and their orthography 
as well as in other respects. 

This would not be an appropriate place, even if it were deemed necessary 
to urge the merits of the Register upon the Public. A mere perusal of its 
contents, professing to exhibit so much useful matter and evidently supplying 
a very general want, would, we are confident, induce a more thorough ex¬ 
amination—and it is upon the result of this, we trust the success of our 
enterprise. 

“It will contain,” as was stated in the Prospectus, “in clear and method¬ 
ical arrangement, the names, duties, salaries, terms of service, &c., of every 
officer in the State and the principal officers in the Federal Government; 
the names and address of every Clergyman, Lawyer, Physician, Merchant

and Tradeaman in the State; the Literary Institutions, Colleges, male and 
female, Newspapers and Periodicals, with their Editors and location; also, 
useful and interesting statistics, compiled from the late Census returns and 
other sources; besides a variety of other miscellaneous information useful 
for daily reference.” An Advertising Department is added, to which atten¬ 
tion it respectfully invited. 

It has been our endeavor to combine that which is useful to men in every 
profession and branch of business, with something that may be of interest to 
ihe curious. And it has been equally our effort to arrange the matter in 
such method as to make it convenient for reference, so that it shall maintain 
its place upon the business desk as an indispensable book. To those who 
have used such a work, and thus become fully acquainted with its merits, we 
confidently submit this without remark. But to those unaccustomed to such 
reference books, and unaware of their convenieuee, we would suggest that 
probably its want is unconsciously felt, and that it will be more clearly per¬ 
ceived, and the absence of the book more regretted, after having used it a 
short time. 

The time at which the work is issued might be an additional recommen¬ 
dation. Soon after so complete a change, not only in the whole form of the 
State Government, but in all its officers, a book furnishing information in 
answer to the daily inquiries, as to the time of elections, terms of service 
salaries, and names of officers in various parts of the State, would seem, for 
this purpose, peculiarly useful. The Miscellaneous Department will, we 
think, afford matter of interest to all. 

To our correspondents in aU parts of the State, and to other gentlemen 
who have aided us in obtaining information for the Eegister, we desire here 
to return our warmest acknowledgments. 

Fully persuaded of the utility and need of a work of this character, and 
trusting that we have succeeded, to some extent, in the compilation of the 
one now presented, we submit the “Register,” hoping it may fill its place 
and meet with such patronage as will encourage another issue,

INTKODCCTION. 


In order to obtain that clear comprehension of a law necessary to arrive 
at a safe conclusion, when doubts arise as to its constructions, it will be 
necessary to understand the history of its enactment, the law previously 
existing upon the same subject, its fault or deficiency, and the general spirit 
in which the law-making power has sought the remedy. Upon the same 
principle, in order to arrive at a perfect comprehension of the form and 
general principles of any Government, and at the same time to perceive the 
wisdom or the contrary evinced in the more minute provisions of its consti¬ 
tution, it is equally necessary to understand the forms of the Government 
previously existing; and in the history of its successive mcdlficatious, to dis¬ 
cover its deficiencies, errors and abuses, and then to examine in what manner 
and how successfully these have been remedied. By such a study of any 
Government a thorougi: and statesmanlike acquaintance with its general 
principles is obtained, its merits appreciated, its faults and liabilities to 
abuse perceived, and amendments safely at\d advantageously suggested.— 
But there are other advantages attending such an examination. The suc¬ 
cessive changes in the fundamental law of any people, and the success and 
wisdom with which, under its various modifications, their Government has 
been administered, is tho surest index of the degree of their intelligence, 
their capacity for self-government, and their advance in civilization. It is 
to the want of this comprehension of the principles upon which Governments 
should he founded, and to the entire ignorance of Legislators as to the con- 
dition and intelligence of the people, that can be traced the almost universal 
failure hitherto in the establishment of Republics. In the first ebullition 
of Democratic feeling and the violent effort at deliverance from the Tyrant’s 
grasp, these most laudable attempts at freedom have been often defeated hv 



INTRODUCTION. 


14 

the very zeal and over-heated passion for reformation. In the midst of this 
passionate cry for liberty, conventions have assembled under the strongest 
influence of this excitement, with full power to amend, reform, totally 
abolish, or re-establish any existing or other priuc^de or law, under but the 
one useless restriction to their action,—that the People reign. The pro¬ 
ductions of such conventions, so assembled, have invariably partaken too 
strongly of the existing public excitement, and from a mistaken notion of 
the practical operation of the proposed government, and from an ignorance 
of the condition of the people and their capacity for the administration of 
the more liberal form of a Democracy, after a short reign of Anarchy, have 
resulted in the re-establishment of Tyranny, and a re-action against liberty 
more discouraging than before. Whereas, had Legislators assembled, well 
versed in the science of Government, its history and practical operation, and 
well acquainted with the intelligence of the mass of the people, the desired 
reformation would have been secured, and liberty been the result. The 
people, as the original possessors of all power, have often, by the very re¬ 
strictions imposed upon themselves, rendered their future action almost be¬ 
yond the control of their own judgment and will; and after the long re¬ 
strained desire for change, have, upon their resumption to themselves of 
certain powers, confided too much in their own capacity, and been too 
jealous of entrusting it again to their Eepresentatives. In reforms agitated 
in Monarchies or Despotisms, the desired change can be effected only by 
means of a Revolution. There, of course, the passion is more violent and 
the danger of error greater. But even in the changes made in the funda¬ 
mental law of the States of the Union, there is danger of carrying the 
Democratic feeling too far. To prevent hasty and inconsiderate action in 
constitutional modifications, certain restrictions are imposed, by which so 
much time is required to accomplish the object, that generally no reforma¬ 
tion is attempted until the abuses of the old system become intolerable, 
when there is great danger of too much change. 

On the admission of Kentucky into the Union, in June, 1792, the people 
were at full liberty to establish any Rep^iblican form of Government they 
might desire, provided it be not contrary in any of its provisions to the 
Federal Constitution. Pleased, probably, by the success which the prudent 
delegation of power had secured to the Federal Government, they very 
wisely mistrusted their own capacity in the more minute administration, 
determining rather to confide in their Representatives than trust too far in 
their own cool action. The same distribution of the Powers of Government 
was made, which has been preserved to this time, into the Executive, Leg-

islutive, autl «i udicial. The Executive Department was vested in a Governor 
alone. To him was entrusted the appointment of all the officers of the 
Judiciary Department, and other inferior officers of the State, except Sher¬ 
iffs and Coroners, who were reserved for the people’s choice. Fearing lest 
popular excitement should exert some influence in the selection of the Ex¬ 
ecutive, in whom such important power w'as confided, it was provided, that 
at the time of choosing Kepresentatives to the lower branch of the Legislature, 
every fourth year, an equal number of Electors should be elected, in whom 
was vested the important power of selecting the Governor. These Electors 
were also authorized and directed to elect members to the Senate, being 
confined in their choice to one from each of the districts then existing; but 
in the election of Senators for the districts to be subsequently established 
no such restriction is found. In case of the death, resignation or removal 
of the Governor, the Speaker of the Senate was empowered to act in his 
stead, in this manner rendering it nearly impossible that the Executive 
chair be filled except by one chosen by this body of Electors. No Lieuten¬ 
ant Governor, by name, w^as provided for. In the choice of Eepresentatives 
to the Lower House of the Legislature, the people acted in person ; these 
being elected annually and regarded as the more immediate agents of the 
people, and perfectly acquainted with their desires and necessities. In the 
organization of the Judicial Department nothing more was provided than 
that there exist one Court of Appeals, which was to take cognizance of cer- 
taiiTcauses stipulated for in the contract with Virginia. The organization 
of the inferior Courts was not considered as belonging to Constitutional en- 
actinent, but being a matter in w'hich experience might soon point out an 
advantageous amendment, it should be left to the Legislature, where modifi¬ 
cations could be more conveniently made. The framers of the Constitution 
of 1792 seem to have had a more clear comprehension of the object of a 
Constitution, regarding it as the fundamental law, in which only the form 
or general principles of the Government ought to be found, and only certain 
provisions contained whose repeal would in no case be consistent with lib¬ 
erty, leaving the more particular organization of the Government, and the 
practical method of its operation, to Legislation. By this means such a 
system could be outlined, which, by the modification of its particular or¬ 
ganization, could be easily adapted in its operation to the social changes of 
the people, and thus prevent a total change. 

In 1799 the people became convinced of their own advance and of their 
competency to safely reassume certain of the powers which, under the first 
Constitution, had been delegated. They determined to exercise in person 


INTRODUCTION. 


ib 

the right of electing their Chief Magistrate and Senate. To prevent the 
possibility of the Executive chair being filled olhenvisc than as provided in 
their Constitution, a Lieutenant Governor was directed to be elected, with 
the same qualifications, in the same manner, and at the same time, with the 
Governor. He was ex-officio Speaker of the Senate, and in case of the 
death, resignation or dismissal from office of the Governor, succeeded him 
iu office. Though the organization of the J udiciary was doubtless iu the 
minds of the framers of the Constitution of 1739, yet it is left to Legisla¬ 
tive action. 

In au age of continual advance and improvement, such as that iu vvbieb 
we live, it can hardly be a matter of much surprise that a Republican form 
of Government instituted fifty years ago, so soon after the people had as¬ 
sumed to themselves its administration, should be found deficient in many 
of its provisions, aud exposed to continual abuse. Prudent at first in not 
undertaking the whole responsibility of canyiug out their Republican prin¬ 
ciples, and in their thirst for liberty iu not making the Democracy too com¬ 
plete, tshey very naturally concluded that fifty years’ operation had pointed 
out the errors aud need of amendment, aud had given them sufficient expe¬ 
rience to enable them safely to administer it. Lest in a liasty aud iuconbid- 
erate passion for change, the Constitution be too often modified, and not be 
permitted time to test its operation, the manner of amending it i.s provided 
iu the Constitution of 1799. It is required that the vote of the people at 
two annual elections be taken, as to whether it be expedient to call a Con¬ 
vention for tliii purpose; and if at bot'Ji elections a majority of ail the voters 
in the State be found in favor of the proposed call, a poll is to be opened 
for the election of Delegates to a Convention, with full power to modify, 
amend, totally abolish, or establish any system whatever, provided it he 
Republican. The Reform question had been for some time iu agitation 
among the politicians of the day, prior to the taking of the vote on the sub¬ 
ject in 1847; and a Public Journal, advocating the cause aud exposing the 
defects of the old Constitution, had been published »t Erankfort, under the 
style of ‘^The Convention edited by R. C. McKee, Esq. In August, 
1847, the first vote upon the expediency of callin.g a Convention was taken, 
and the general desire for change manifested by a majority of nearly fifty 
thousand in its favor. The extreme unpopularity of the self-perpetuating, 
tyrannical County Court System, as it was termed, togetlier witli the exer¬ 
cise of the appointing power by the Executive, were the priueipal objections 
to the old Constitution, and furnished the principal material for the argu¬ 
ments of tile politicians of the day, in urging the change upon the people.

Those were argaments uaturally well calculated to carry the point with tha 
more illiterate class of the people, while the more mature judgment of men 
of sound practical sense, founded upon the history of the science of govern¬ 
ment, its operation under different circumstances, together with some per¬ 
sonal experience and a general acquaintance with the intelligence and honesty 
of the people, secured to the agitated question a very large and respectable 
vuic. The intrinsic popularity and certain success of the measure, from ita 
first agitn+ion, may have induced other men, whose prospects and future po¬ 
litical fortuuo depended upon their favor with the people, to remain silent, 
or even, in some instances, to advocate the change, contrary to their sound 
judgment and more honest convictions. A majority of the votes of the 
whole State being necessary to carry the question, no neutral course was 
left to he pursued, and the sooner position in favor of the call was taken, 
the surer share of the spoils was supposed to be thereby secured. Every 
method, except a bold independent course, was pursued by this party of Old 
Hunkers, as they were derisively termed, and every advantage taken to 
quell this spirit of Self-Government among the people; but finding al^ 
their efforts vain, and that the new system must prevail, they thought to 
palliate their opposition by a reluctant vote in its favor. On the contrary, 
however, a large class of gentlemen placed themselves in bold and direct 
opposition to the proposed modification of the Constitution, and by argu¬ 
ments evincing learning, research and probably an equal acquaintance with 
tlie science of Government and the competency of the people for its admin¬ 
istration, showed themselves to be no prejudiced class of Old Hunkers, hold¬ 
ing on to the old system merely because it was old, or from a determined and 
unvarying opposition to anything bearing the name of reform. It has been 
observed by an author of some reputation, that in the agitation of the Reform 
question in every country, men are found to take positions on the respective 
sides; the ono party from a determination against change, and a natural dis¬ 
position to cling on to old principles, and the other from an equally unrea¬ 
sonable passion for everything new, and a love of any reform whatever, 
without considering one moment whether benefit or injury bo the result. 
Admitting, as we must do, that such old and riew men were found under 
such influences in the late movement in Kentucky, we can still safely assert 
that the Constitutional Reform question was ably discussed during two or 
three years, i)y men of c<iol reasoning, deep research, and liberal unpreju¬ 
diced minds, who stoutly maintained their respective po&iiions and rendered 
tlie ([uestion one of great and universal interest. 

In August, 1848, the second vote on the proposed call was taken, and a

more decided expression of public feeling the result. In 1849, pursuant to 
an act of the Legislature passed the previous winter, ninety-nine Delegates 
Were elected to compose a Convention to take the agitated questions into 
consideration. They assembled at Frankfort in October, 1849. After a 
session of three months a new form of Government was produced, and a 
temporary adjournment of the Convention had, in order that an expression 
of the people’s will be obtained before it was proclaimed as the Constitution. 
After every defect in the old Government had been exposed and the remedy 
suggested, it would not seem to have been a matter of much difficulty for 
Delegates, representing every portion of (he State, and possessed, it is to be 
presumed, of the will of their constituents upon every important provision 
to be inserted in the new Constitution, to have produced an instrument w'hich 
would be satisfactory to the people, if not an improvement. Many objec¬ 
tions were, however, urged against the new plan of Government, not only 
as to the general principles contained in it, but even as to the phraseology of 
the instrument and its bad style. 

“The Champion of Reform” was issued weekly, edited by Victor Mon¬ 
roe, Esq., of Frankfort, in advocation of the adoption of the proposed 
system; while in defense of the old Constitution, “The Cld Guard,” edited 
by Thomas F. Marshall, Esq., of the same place, w^as regularly issued. 
These gentlemen, and the parties generally, through their Journals, as their 
organs, defended their respective positions, and exposed whatever defect 
could be discovered in the systems proposed by their opponents. The ques¬ 
tion of popular elections w^as theoretically and practically discussed through 
these papers, in articles which evince beside a liberal comprehension of the 
science of Government, with a knowledge of its history, also a practical 
acquaintance with its real operation and the degree of intelligence requisite 
to its safe administration. The decision of the people under the circum¬ 
stances can hardly be a satisfactory settlement of the question; a practical 
illustration will, however, soon settle all theoretical disputations and assign 
the palm of victory. Whatever may be the result, the action of the people 
w'as coolly and deliberately had, alterable and sufficient discussion, and it is 
to be hoped that the successful party may not deem former opposition to 
them as a disqualification to office. 

The Anti-Reform party urged the rejection of the form of Government 
proposed upon the people, allcdging its hasty submission to them as a mere 
trick to prevent the exposition of its defects, How'ever this may have been, 
it was by act of the Legislature, w'hich convened in the mean time, submitted 
to the people, and by them approved of at the polls in May, 1850. In June

the Couveution re-assembled, and after the eorrcction of some grammatical 
errors, and probably changing the style in some parts, proclaimed and pub¬ 
lished the present Constitution to be the fundamental and inviolate law oE 
the land. 

After reciting the objects of the Constitution, the usual method is pursued 
of distributing the Powers of the Government into the three. Executive, 
Legislative and Judicial Departrhents. This constitutes the first article of 
the Constitution of 1850. To secure the independence of each Department, 
and preserve the distinction between them, a section is added, prohibiting 
any one to hold office under either two of them at the same time. To con¬ 
stitute that beautiful system of checks and balances, so well described by the 
English commentator, each department must be kept distinct and free in its 
action, so that any undue assumption of power by either one, can be readily 
opposed by the others. In order, therefore, to secure this independence, the 
people have constituted themselves the sole source of power in the first in¬ 
stance, leaving the officers of two of the departments accountable for their 
conduct in office, not to them, which would be too inconvenient, but to their 
immediate Kepresentatives in the Legislature, who, it is to be presumed, 
only do their will. No practical method of placing the power of removal 
from office in the hands of the people immediately, could be proposed; this 
power must be entrusted to some department, and none could be more suita¬ 
ble, and none whose action would be more in accordance with public senti¬ 
ment, than the Legislature. The possibility of infringing any right of the 
people is thus entirely prevented, for it would requii-e the free and uncon- 
troled concurrence of the three departments to effect such an infringement, 
aud before its result could be injurious the term of office of the authors 
would have expired and the will of the people ca ried out through their new 
delegates. 

In common with the Constitution of 1799, but different from that of 
1792, the Executive power is vested in a Governor and Lieutenant Governor. 
The Governor must be at least thirty-five years of age, a citizen of the Uni¬ 
ted States, and have been an inhabitant of the State at least six years preced¬ 
ing his election; in this no change has been made. Members of Congress, 
officers of the United States, Ministers of any Ileligion are excluded from 
this office. He has command of the militia except when called into actual 
service, fills vacancies in the inferior offices until elections are held, has 
power to grant reprieves and pardons, remit fines, except the fees of Clerks, 
Sheriffs, and Commonwealth’s Attorneys, and on extraordinary occasions can 
convene the General Assembly, or adjourn them to such time as he shall

think proper, not exceeding four months. He can require information in 
writing from ike officers in the Executive department, upon any matter rela¬ 
ting to their duties of office, and must at regular periods give the Legislature 
information as to the State of the Commonwealth, and recommend such ac¬ 
tion as he may think expedient. He is liable to impeachment by the House 
of Representatives, and upon conviction thereof by the Senate can be re¬ 
moved from office and disqualified to hold office in future. 

Much of the influence and importance of the Gubernatorial office has been 
taken from it by the new Constitution. Investing in the people the election 
of all the officers in the State, except the Secretary of State, it has deprived 
him of the only method of rewarding political friends and of retaining that 
patronage which he has hitherto enjoyed. The appointment of Secretary 
of State was left him, probably, because being an officer so closely 
connected with the Governor, the election of two violent partizans to these 
offices diffeiung in political opinions and interests, the perfect harmony of 
the Executive might have been disturbed; besides, it was an office witli which 
the people were little concerned, and one which concerned the personal in¬ 
terest and convenience of the Governor. The salary remains the same as 
heretofore; $2500 per annum. 

A Lieutenant Governor is elected at the same time, for the same term, and 
with the s^me qualifications with the Governor, who is ex-officio speaker of the 
Senate, and in case of the death, resignation or removal from office of ihe Gov¬ 
ernor, succeeds him in office. If this vacancy occurs in the Executive office 
before the first two years of his term of office is expired, a new election is 
had, otherwise the Lieutenant Governor fills the chair during the remainder 
of the time. He receives a per diem compensation during the session of the 
Legislature, and when discharging the duties of the Governor’s office, receives 
the regular salary of that office. 

The General Assembly, in which the Legislative powers of the Govern¬ 
ment are vested, consists of a Senate and House of Representatives. The 
Senate is composed of thirty-eight members cho.sen from so many districts 
into which the State is divided. This number cannot be exceeded; but as 
the State increases in population, an apportionment of Representatives is made 
every eighth year. In these apportionments are practiced the principal in¬ 
fringements of the equality of rights attempted to be secured by the Consti¬ 
tution, being made frequently to serve the interest of one party, rather than 
that of the State. Equal representation is by no means attained, one man 
in some portions of the State having double the influence in the administra¬ 
tion of the Government, of one rcsidimx in a less favored region. This is 


INTKUDL- Ci lOS. 


VI 

su evii which though perhaps foreseey could with difficulty have beeu rem¬ 
edied ; it can only be attributed to the bad effects of party feeling. The 
Senator must be thirty-five years of age, a citizen of the United States, six 
years a resident of the State, and one year an inhabitant of the district he 
represents. The Senators are chosen for the term of four years, but after 
the election in 1851 they cast lots and are so classed that one half go out at 
the expiration of two years. Thus at no session is the Legislature composed 
of entirely new members, which is probably some restraint upon inconsider¬ 
ate action from the unsteady public sentiment. The number of the mem¬ 
bers composing the Lower House is fixed at one hundred; thus a convenient 
number is limited to this branch, which is doubtless an improvement upon 
the unwieldy bodies of some of the other States. The powers of the Legisla¬ 
ture are by the Constitution of 1850 considerably lessened, or rather many 
powers which have been heretofore exercised by that body in evasion of the 
spirit of the former Constitution, are now made contrary to the letter of the 
present one. Tlie power of granting divorces, changing the names of per¬ 
sons, changing the venue in criminal cases, or directing the sale of the es¬ 
tates of infants or other persons laboring under legal disabilities, is directly 
taken away, except as exercised by general laws. The General Assembly is 
permitted to contract debts to meet failures or defects in the Revenue, pro¬ 
vided they do not exceed $500,000, except in case of'insurrection, invasion, 
(fee., in which cases there is no restriction; but tlie money raised as first 
above mentioned must be applied to the purposes for which it was obtained, 
or to the repayment of the debt. No law, except for the discharge of the 
State debt, can be contracted, unless it be previously submitted to the people 
and by them approved, and provision beat tlie same time made for the pay¬ 
ment of the interest of the same, and the final discharge of the debt in thir¬ 
ty years. In the appropriations of all sums of money and in the contracts 
for all debts exceeding SlOO, a majority of all the members elected to both 
Houses is necessary, and the yens and nays directed to be entered on record. 
The Sinkivg Fund is declared to be inviolate, being applied solely to the 
payment of the interest and principal of the State vlebt, until it be entirely 
discharged. 

The Common School Fund, consisting of the sums of $1,225,768, in Ky. 
State bonds, $73,500 in stock of the Bank of Ky., and $51,223.29 is declared 
inviolate; the latter sum together with any other which may be hereafter 
raised for the purposes of education must be safely and advantageously invest¬ 
ed; and the interest arising from the whole fund is ordered to be divided 
proportionably between the counties, and applied exclusively to educational 
purposes. 


INTRODUCTION.

Tiie law upon the subject of the emancipation of slaves, contained in the 
Constitution of 1799, is retained in that of 1850. This laiv prohibits the 
Legislature to emancipate any slave, without paying the owner a full equiva¬ 
lent, and in 1850 the slaves so cmancipatea by the Legislature are required 
to be removed from the State. In case of voluntary emancipation of slaves, 
which cannot be done in fraud of rights of creditors, the owmers so emanci¬ 
pating must remove them from the State. It is additionally provided that 
any slave so emancipated refusing to leave the State, or after having left, who 
shall return into the same, or any mulatto or free negro hereafter moving 
into the State, shall be declared guilty of felony and punished by confine¬ 
ment in the penitentiary. The free-negro population, designed to be re¬ 
moved by these provisions, have been found so exceedingly worthless and 
injurious to the slaves, that the need of such laws is readily perceived. 

The seat of Government was fixed at Frankfort under the provisions of the 
Constitution of 1792, and two-thirds of both branches of the Legislature 
.made necessary to its removal. In both the Constitutions of 1799 and 1850 
it has been continued at the same place, requiring a majority of two-thirds 
of all elected to both branches of the General Assembly, necessary to concur 
in its removal. This has been frequently attempted, and on some occasions 
has caused the citizens of that place some alarm, lest it should be accomplish¬ 
ed; but it is believed to be now permanently located at Frankfort. 

Nearly all these restrictions upon Legislative power are found contained 
in the letter of the late Constitution alone; though perhaps were evident in 
the spirit of those previously existing. The power of granting divorces, par¬ 
ticularly, had been carried to a most shameful excess, and exercised in viola¬ 
tion of every principle of policy, honor and wisdom, notwithstanding it was 
plausibly contended and decided by the Court of Appeals to be in direct opposi¬ 
tion to several provisions in the Constitution. It was so indiscriminately and 
disgracefully practiced during the last few sessions of the Legislature, as to at¬ 
tract the notice of the jiress in many parts of the Union, and tended in a 
great degree to diminish the popular respect for Legislative enactments, and 
the holy contract of Matrimony. Many couples, it is said, were unconscious¬ 
ly divorced in the disgraceful levity of the Legislators, where Love said not, 
and were surprised to find themselves living in unlicensed cohabitation, un¬ 
til the marriage ceremony could be re-performed. These corrections of the 
abuses of Legislative power may be reckoned among the benefits derived 
from the New Constitution, though the want of such restrictions cun hardly 
be reflected to the discredit of tlm framers of the prior Constitutions, made as 
the\ weie when the causes did not exist; and besides, if subsequent Legisla- 


INl'liODtJCTtON. ^3 

iiu-esdid enact laws jjlaiulycoutiary to the reasonable inferences drawn 
from their Constitution, there is no want of wisdom and foresight to be as- 
cribed to them. 

Considering themselves the sourceofall power, the People determined in 
1850 that the appointment of the officers of the Judiciary d(partmeut cohld 
be safely re-assumed into their own hands, and that Justice could be more 
impartially and invariably dispensed by a frequent change of the officers 
entrusted with its administration. This was an important step, and its wis¬ 
dom much doubted, but it was the people’s will, and in this country, who dare 
dispute its propriety? 

Induced probably by the great detestation in which the judicial system 
was held, its whole organization was changed and inserted in the Constitu¬ 
tion of 1850. This was considered, in 1799, more properly the province of 
Legislative enactment, the outline being only given, but in the eagerness to 
get clear of the existing system in 1850, they have bound themselves to an¬ 
other, w^hich may in timeprdvc insufficient for the ends of justice, and equal- 
ly obnoxious. 

A Court of Appeals, with only appellate jurisdiction, is organized, and 
the number of J udges fixed at four, with power given the Legislature to re¬ 
duce them to three. It was left to the discretion of the Legislature, wheth¬ 
er it would be advisable to branch this Court, so that its sessions be held at 
different parts in the State ; in which case a Clerk must be elected from each 
district in which the Court should sit. This was not however deemed expe¬ 
dient, and at present the State is divided into four districts, from each of 
which a Judge is chosen ; these meet in Frankfort and constitute the Court. 
The Clerk is elected by the whole State at large. The Judge having the 
shortest term to serve, after the division by lot into the required classes is 
made, presides, and is st 3 ded the Chief Justice; so that in this manner every 
Judge attains that honor during the last two years of his term. It was at 
first believed that the addition of one Judge, to the number constituting the 
old Court, would be an improvement and facilitate the transaction of business, 
though upon the trial it has, we believe, been found to be unsuccessful; the 
amount of business devolving upon each Judge being on the whole about the 
same. The character, hitherto possessed by the decisions of our supreme 
Court, seems likely to be maintained by the present bench; and considering 
the laborious duties of the office and the insufficient compensation, the char¬ 
acter of our Court must be a matter of surprise. The salary would hardly 
seem sufficient inducement for Lawyers of ordinary standing to accept the 
office, much less wmuld it seem to justify Lawyers of the characters and repu- 


24

tatiou of those who have heretofore aud now fill the offices, iii the discharge 
of the duties. The present bench speak well for the people’s discretion ; and if 
in the election of all their officers, an equal wisdom is employed, the Reform 
party will have achieved a triumph for their principles. 

The Constitution of 1850, different from both those previously formed, pro¬ 
vides for the particular organization of the Circuit Court. In the first place 
the number of Circuits is reduced from nineteen to twelve; leaving it in the 
power of the Legislature to add one more circuit every four years-; provided 
the number, so increased, do not exceed sixteen, until the population of the 
State reach one million and a half. In each of these twelve circuits, in 
which the State is divided, a Judge and Commonw'ealth’s Attorney are elect¬ 
ed. A Court is held in each county, twice each yea]-, and the Clerk, Sher¬ 
iff, and Jailor are elected by the respective counties. The jurisdiction of 
the Court remains the same, taking cognizance of all cases in Common Law 
and Equity arising within their jurisdiction, where the amount in dispute 
exceeds fifty dollars; also in all criminal cases extending to life or impris¬ 
onment; and hearing appeals from the County Court and Justices of the 
Peace in certain cases, provided by law. The salary of these Judges has 
been increased by $200 per annum, in consideration of the increase of busi¬ 
ness, though it is believed to be very incompetent. The low-salary party 
decidedly carried their measure at the session of 1850- 1, but these salaries 
fortunately being left out of the provisions of the Constitution, can be in¬ 
creased when experience shall point out the necessity. The character of the 
• Circuit Bench throughout the State does no discredit to the capacity of the 
people. 

A County Court is directed by the Constitution, to be held in each county 
in the commonwealth, to be composed of a County Judge aud two Associ¬ 
ates, power being left to the Legislature to abolish the offices of Associate 
Justices. This has been done, aud the Court now consists of a Presiding 
Judge, except in the month of October, when the Justices of Peace sit with 
him. At this October Court, claims against the county arc audited and 
settled, provision made for the poor, appropriations made for the reparation 
of bridges, roads, &c., the county levy provided to be raised, aud the whole 
financial business of the county transacted. At the regular monthly sessions 
of this Court the Presiding Judge alone presides, and provides for the admin¬ 
istration of the estates of idiots, lunatics, infants &c., for the settlement of 
all accounts with executors, administrators, and guardians, within his coun¬ 
ty, and, in short, exercises the jurisdiction of the old County Court. The 
Clerk to this Court is elected, and to him are tranferred the Records of the 


tNTtlODtJCTlOK. 


26 


oid Court, capable of beiug used as evidence, under his certificate. The 
Justices of Peace composing these October Courts, together urith a Constable, 
are elected, two from each district into which the counties are divided, and 
exercise the same jurisdiction up to fifty dollars, as heretofore. Besides these 
regular County Courts, the Presiding Judge is directed to hold quarterly 
terms, when he sits alone, and is his own clerk, keeps a record of his own 
proceedings, and issues his own writs, executions, &c. At these quarterly 
terms he exercises the whole jurisdiction of Justice of the Peace, also con¬ 
current jurisdiction ivith the Circuit Courts, where the amount in contro¬ 
versy does not exceed one hundred dollars, except in cases where the boun¬ 
daries of land are involved. The act establishing the County Court, approv¬ 
ed March, 1851, was carelessly framed, and its confusion in the use of term^ 
designating the regular County Court, and the Courts held quarterly by the 
Piesiding Judge, will give rise to many questions. The carelessness, char¬ 
acteristic of the session of 1850-1. should most especially have been avoided 
in the organization of the Courts, where its effects will be so much felt.— 
The office of County Judge being one of great importance and one requiring 
not only a lawyer but a man of sound integrity and good sense, has been 
unfortunately misappreciated by the people; its increased importance has 
not been understood, and its officers tlmougliout the State are generally in¬ 
competent and speak badly for the elective principle. Sound honesty and 
legal capacity arc absolutely necessary for the due discharge of the duties of 
the office, and it is important that it be well filled. It is to be hoped how¬ 
ever that a little experience will teach the people their mistake, Aud, under¬ 
standing the nature of the office, they will, at the next election, evince their 
usual discretion in the choice of able and competent officers. 

The Judges are all liable to removal from office on the address of two- 
thirds of the Legislature.

fice of Second Auditor was aboli hed in 1851 and the dutie- devolved upon the 
Ateditor t'fFubhc Accounts, as he is termed in the Act. The General Court, 
whic • has heretofore < xisted and been held at Fra kfort, by oue of the Cir¬ 
cuit Judges was aboli'hed in 1851, and the unfinished business, records, and 
jurisdiction conferred upon the Circuit Court of Franklin county. I’he Judge 
of this Court is directed to hold a special term for this purpose in Jauuarv— 
but these are legislative enactments.

INtllODtJCTiOK. 


In the formation of the Constitution of 1850 too much minuteness is ob¬ 
jectionable; there is an evident want of that general exposition of the prin¬ 
ciples of Government which leaves the practical operation to be carried out 
by the Legislature, and also of that neatness and clearness of style, that 
chastity of language, that happy arrangement and perfect simplicity of plan, 
which characterizes the Federal Constitution. As to the general principles 
of Government contained in it, it may he correct, hut in its arrangement, lan¬ 
guage, and style, we think, it would hardly he recognized as the production 
of statesmen and thorough scholars. Time has hardly yet been allowed to 
test its operation, but as a neat instrument it cannot he recommended. 

That a Model Government, has been firmly established, however, let the 
thanks of mankind be rendered to the Patriots of ’76 and the Statesmen of ’&9i

The Senate is composed of two members from each State; and, of cour.se

several States, for the term of six years, one third of them being elected 
bienujally. 
















tj'i'ATJa kkgistek. 


aul 

The Vice-Prcsldeat of the Uuitecl States is the President of the Senate, 
in which body ho has only a casting vote, whicli is given in case of an equal 
division of the votes of the Senators. In his absence, a President pro tem¬ 
pore is chosen by the Senate. 

The House of Kepresentatives is composed of members from the several 
States, elected by the people, for the term of two years. The Representa¬ 
tives are apportioned among the different States according’ to population. 
The 32d Congress is chosen according to the act of Congress of 1842, the 
ratio being ‘‘one Representative for every 70,680 persons in each State, aud 
one additional Representative for each State having a fraction greater than 
one moiety of the said ratio, computed according to the rule prescribed by 
the Constitution of the United States.” The law of 1842 also requires, 
that the Representatives of each State “shall be elected by districts, com¬ 
posed of a contiguous territory, equal in nuuibcr to the number of Repre¬ 
sentatives to which said State may be entitled, no one district electing more 
than one Representative.” The present number of Representatives is 283, 
and there are four Delegates, one each from Oregon, Miuesota, Utah, aud 
New Mexico, who have a right to speak, but not to vote. 

Since the 4th of March, 1817, the compensation of each member of the 
Senate and House of Representatives has been $8 a day, during the period 
of his attendance in Congress, without deduction incase of sickness; and 
S 8 for every twenty miles’ travel, in the usual road, in going to and return¬ 
ing from the seat of government. The compensation of the President of 
the Senate 2 ^ro tempore, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, 
is $ 16 a day.

The undersigned announces that the flattering prospects of tlic Cincin¬ 
nati Mercantile College, which has been increasing in patronage for a 
series of years and which is now extended to nearly every part of the United

an extensive and elegant suite of rooms (which have been arranged express¬ 
ly for this institution), combining, it is believed, accommodations and advan¬ 
tages, and furnished in a style superior to any similar establishment in this 
country. 

The design of the Institution is to qualify individuals for the Counting 
Room, and Business Pursuits.

A KELIGIOUS AND LITEKAEY PEKIODIGAL, 


EDITED BY JOHN L. WALLER & CHAS, D. KIRK. 

This is a monthly periodical of 64 pages, octavo, designed 
to fill the place between the newspaper and the book—to fur¬ 
nish an abstract of the times; the discussion of mooted ques¬ 
tion, and the elucidation of interesting topics now engaging 
the attention of Christendom—of pith and moment enough to 
escape the destruction which too generally awaits the news¬ 
paper, and too miscellaneous and heterogenous for the volume 
usually selected for the library. Each volume will make a 
handsome book of 768 royal octavo pages. 

Terms—$ 2 per annum in advance.
